Basically, since childhood, I've been kind of out of step with everyone else, with what they're doing, with what they think is cool or important.

I’ve always been interested in the supernatural, Halloween and ghost stories. As far as the stuff that has influenced me, I’m not into gore stuff. My favorite era of horror is the early ’30s through the very early ’60s. I’m drawn to the atmosphere, and some of it does influence my work, but I don’t want to become a cartoonish parody. We’re not a horror rock band.”

The name is a metaphor. The Tiger is a solitary, independent animal. That tiger spirit is represented in the people who find their way out of the mainstream into different kinds of alternative culture or subculture, the people who are searching for something, who don't just except what is handed to them. That's the Tiger Army, all the people who share that spirit and relate to our music. The rest of the human race are cows, sheep… herd animals with a herd mentality.

Since the beginning of the band, almost everyone I've played with has been a friend. Many times, people played with Tiger Army just for fun, to help me out by doing some shows or a recording session. That's how Geoff Kresge first came to play with the band in '99!

You can become friends with someone you don't know, but playing with someone you don't relate to isn't a good idea and won't work in the long run. That's my experience, anyway.

I've always been the type of person who's been very passionate about the things I'm into; I know the same is true for Geoff.
